Highlights include:

  • Musical guests The Throwbacks will play "brand new oldies" from 1:15 to 2:15 p.m.
  • The Bubble Bus will park itself here at the library to "spread joy and bubbles" to people of all ages from 2:45 to 3:45 p.m.
  • Duke's Blues-N-BBQ of East Dundee will be serving up a sample of Southern barbeque at its finest.
  • Sign up for the summer reading challenge and receive your "Oceans of Possibilities" limited edition beach bag.
  • Visit with some of our VIP tables like Illinois State Representative Suzanne Ness, Elder & Oat Bread and Coffee Collective, and Alianza Hispanoamericana, a non-profit organization that specializes in immigration help.

In the event of inclement weather, the party will be held indoors at the Dundee Library.
